Babysitter Available in New York, NY: Lisa L.

"We cannot recommend Lisa highly enough. She has been with our family for three years, starting when our eldest was just 6 months old and seamlessly welcoming our second son, born in 2024. She truly loves our boys like her own — and they feel it. What makes her exceptional is her total presence and genuine investment in our kids' development. She is never on her phone — always engaged, always stimulating: reading, singing, playing music, and getting them outside. She proactively recommends books, toys, and activities perfectly suited to each child's age and personality. When we moved from NYC to NJ, she chose to commute rather than leave our boys. That says everything. Any family would be lucky to have her."
